(marks) Th. (marks) 30 70 Lectures Total 100 (marks) = 68 Hours Objective: Software Engineering is the systematic Approach to the design, development, operation, and maintenance of a software system. Objectives of Software Engineering are : 1. Maintainability – the ease with which changes in a functional unit can be performed in order to meet prescribed requirements. 2. Correctness – the extent to which software meets its specified requirements 3. Reuseability – the extent to which a module can be used in multiple applications. 4. Testability – the extent to which software facilitates both the establishment of test criteria and the evaluation of the software with respect to those criteria. 5. Reliability – an attribute of software quality. The extent to which a program can be expected to perform its intended function, over an arbitrary time period. 6. Portability – the ease with which software can be transferred from one computer system or environment to another. 7. Adaptability – the ease with which software allows differing system constraints and user needs to be satisfied by making changes to the software.
